Default Joe's 05 GT30R..UPDATED 7/25 I'm All WHITE again!

I havent updated this in a while, and have been doing a numerous amount of things so i figured id throw in a new update. Page 1 will contain all pictures/info on the current state. UPDATED 7/5/08.

Plans/Future plans:

I've tackled my motor mods pretty much for right now. I plan on doing some internal upgrades once i get settled (just graduated college/finding a job/etc etc). I dont plan to go TOO crazy on the motor (but hey i've gone through 2 turbos already lol). i was just thinking of dropping in some pistons and maybe calling it a day. I'm trying to limit myself to how much power i put in this thing since it is my DD as of right now. once i get another beater/DD its all game. We will see how it plays out.

My next plan is to upgrade my clutch before i go back to get tuned (which i wanted to do this last couple weeks since i've had my car apart doing the reverse i/m), and then im going to start working on suspension/brakes since im lacking in that area a little. im welcome to all suggestions and comments!

05 GT30R...Currently @ 380whp/388wtq...Retune on meth/header/reverse I/M soon.

thank you, yeah when i had the invidia, i friggin loved it, but i seriously got pulled over probably 6 times within 3 months. couldnt take switching back to stock to get rid of the ticket and then back to the invidia. plus, the maddad is what i wanted originally, but i purchased the invidia because my buddy was selling it for cheap. so glad i went maddad though. sounds beautiful.

Nice bro, I love it, especially the Defi gauges in the A-pillar.

i chose the A-Pillar because everyone had the center defi setup, but sometimes i feel alone because not many people are rockin it lol. i have to actually check my oil pressure gauge, i think the sensor is going because one day it will be fine and then the other it will be blinking saying its not working. highly annoying, and the spot to get there is even more annoying.

got my base maps, guess my email was just acting up. but now i cant find a damn data cable to transfer it to my accessport, was never sent when i bought it so now i have to try to find one at a radioshack or somethin.

whats up man, i didnt get the inlet yet. comes on Wednesday, ill update on it. it was only 125 shipped so i said wtf and bought that over the perrin and other choices.

just installed my short shifter tonight, wasnt so bad getting that pin back lined up. i do have a small squeak now though when i pull my reverse lockout up i can deal though.

i went to upload my maps on my accessport...i think the accessport is faulty and i have to send it back to cobb. it wont connect to ANY PC i try to connect it to. and i need those base maps on my accessport quick.

ya i was thinking about getting it to, but havent seen any review or anything about it. And about the AP i never tried connecting to my PC before. Thats weird because the tuner obviously had to connect it to his PC at one point. :\ what error did it give you?

Is it already married to your car?

If it's not you hold the up and down arrows while plugging it in to put it in sync mode.
